Currently I post art work. Before the Hadean Eon, I rode the grid as stardust.

I have traveled a bit, and enjoy your photos. However, you are never going to see me consciously swimming with sharks. 🙀

For future reference, it’s easy to change the date. And for website coding, the text structure is a simple self-contained “div”, also available at no cost.

Mark, as a coder, I know LLMs have been around for a few years now, but to educate the public via crisis is absolutely the wrong approach.

2005 working in the mountains in Colorado, and driving to work in a blizzard (I was from Florida- I didn’t know any better). I stopped at an overlook, and quick-sketched this site. I returned on a misty day and finished it. Blizzard, pastels, 21 x15 in. @bsky.art #art #artlover #artsky #artshare

Just for fun!!! First time I posed this it got compressed, too blurry. So I deleted. I compressed this one myself. So, if it looks good after uploading, it will stay. Otherwise, not. @bsky.art #art #artlover #artsky #artshare #animation #3Danimation

Just a simple little, fat finger, teeny tiny misspelling, in thousands of lines of code in Production, and Kaboom - no checks go out. Hair on fire, WAIT, WHAT? Oops, no record of the changes. No staging, just production. WHERE is the sob? Oh, he left.

So I worked on the torso shading to pull it all together. Am not sure how much a casual view will notice the difference, but for me it’s more in tune with the natural flow of the dancer’s form. #art @bsky.art

They are all over 18, so adults. Very likely they will all face serious adult jail time when this is over.

Big project finally finished. Oops. Delayed a week - had to switch ISP due to their lack of customer service. Meanwhile, again going back in time, from the Viet Nam angst years, 1970 Sins of War: Power. Sketch & Painting. #art @bsky.art

Love the pixelated edge on the Vampire Rave lettering; definitely looks like late 90s non-designer work. About then the designers began using tables and css styling; divs came later. Then, I mostly worked with Fireworks, Dreamweaver, and Flash (at that time Macromedia products). Early days!

Cool. Nice of Microsoft to let us know it’s OK to clone their software, as they are dismissing copyright claims to it.

2010, I worked in Dover, NH for some time. While there I used to pass this old abandoned house every day. One winter, after a big snow storm, I stopped and sketched this. It was cold and took two days to complete - quickly - you know, cold.
